Breakfast burritos are one of my favorite breakfasts as of recently so I’m sharing my GO-TO recipe that I make all the time. This one has fluffy scrambled eggs, chicken breakfast sausage links, peppers, onion, spinach and avocado. It’s packed with SO much flavor!
I’ve been sharing a bunch of breakfast burritos on my Instagram. I’m 24 weeks pregnant and craving burritos and tacos big time. I’ve been craving eggs so I have them everyday! Sometimes I’ll make it scrambled with veggies, into an omelette, fried on top of avocado toast or in a burrito like I did here.
Burritos ALWAYS satisfy. I eat a big breakfast so this is perfect for me! I love how it’s not super greasy or healthy unlike many breakfast burritos I’ve had at restaurants. This one is a GOOD one… so don’t miss out!
When it comes to making burritos, I always have scrambled eggs and veggies! I ALWAYS pan-fry the burrito after rolling it up so it gets extra crispy. It makes a HUGE difference.
Breakfast Burrito Ingredients:
- Burrito Sized Tortilla – Instead of regular tortilla wraps, make sure it’s big enough to wrap a burrito! Ones for burritos will be labeled specially “burrito sized”. I like the brand 365 Whole Foods and La Fe Tortilleria.
- Avocado or Olive Oil – These are the two oils I usually use for cooking savory foods. Avocado is great for high heat!
- Veggies – I added spinach, onion and red bell pepper into this burrito but you can sub it for other veggies like onions, mushroom or broccoli!
- Eggs – This is always a must in my breakfast burritos. I’m currently going through an egg craving in pregnancy.
- Chicken Breakfast Sausage Links – I used Amylu’s paleo + nitrate free chicken breakfast links. I love eating it on it’s own and also when added into breakfast burritos!
- Avocado – This makes all burritos and tacos taste better. I love my healthy fats!
- Shredded Cheese – This is optional and since the burrito is pretty packed, I don’t always add in cheese. I’ll usually sprinkle just a little because I roll it up. I like the brands Violife Foods or Miyokos Creamery.
I also have other breakfast burritos that are SUPER delicious. I made an Erewhon copycat breakfast burrito and a turkey bacon and egg burrito.
